Hello..
I am Still Learing Solaris ..
when i try to Install Solaris 8 from its CD...i pressed STOP + A and i get a OK prompt screen.
I then typed, "boot cdrom" and i am getting this error message.
" FATAL: system is not bootable, boot command is disabled."
How do we enable the boot command ?...anyhelp is appreciated.
Thanks

<stop-a>
{}OK> setenv auto-boot? false
{}OK> reset-all

[[resetting, and it will stop at OK without the stop key]]

Hello
When i'm trying to boot from cd I have got
bad magic number in disk label
Can't open disk label package
Can't open boot device
I have got a sun ultra 45 x86
and a dvd of solaris 10
Can someone help me ?
I got the same in an ultra 5 system, unable to boot the cdrom on a cdrom-drive
I used this help link, but of no use. Instead I got a duplicate devalias for cdrom and Im not sure how to remove that...eg
